By the way, l123, two more points, (no links). First, thanks for the belly laugh! That was really funny!! Second, your score post with the question that you took issue with, (see, no link, but I could have.{where's the :tongueout-nyah-nyah: smilie?}) I agree with your position. Family first. Seeing the question before I got the the quiz wasn't exactly a "spoiler" but it certainly was an "influencer".

Good Call.

always happy to make another laugh. except in the locker room. the pointing that goes along with the laughing is kind of embarrassing.

So far the only one more moderate than me was lookout, which is somewhat surprising to me. Anyway, I had a problem with another question:

"Sex outside of marriage is almost always immoral."

I ultimately answered it as if they meant "pre-marital sex," and not "adultery," but I debated for awhile what they meant.

Heheheh...

Reminds me an exchange in an episode of Fawlty Towers I watched this weekend:

Basil: (reminiscing with his wife about their relationship during their courtship) "Still, we laughed a lot, didn't we, Sybil?"

Sybil: "Yes, dear. But not at the same time."

rofl!

It figures that the big lady with the straight jacket is the only authoritarian in the bunch. Give 'em hell Wolf!

Happy Monkey is on his way to anarchist!


Can't find my old numbers.

New numbers

Economic Left/Right: -4.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -4.72

I guess that means at some point in the future, I may end up in the same camp as most of you.

is anyone else as puzzled (mystified) to see that i'm the centrist of the bunch? i'd have to dig them up, but i don't think my numbers changed too much from last time either.

I'm suprised I didn't rank more "out there" then I did. I'm actually quite moderate.
